I've seen same stuff on a pc, but Athlon XP + VIA chipset, and 2.6.22 kernel.
It might happen just on bootup, thence the SATA drives won't appear in the 
dev list, or under heavy i/o on that drive.
I suspect either a kernel bug or hw failure.  Unfortunatly I couldn't check 
for the latter so far (need physical access to the pc), while a possible
kernel bug (reported, boot problem on suh CPU) prevents me to test a more 
recent kernel.

Sadly, I've a feeling it's hw failure though.

If you can, try 2.6.24.3 or even latest .25-rc*.
